Benga’s second release was a collaboration with Skream, called “The Judgement”. Further releases followed on Big Apple Records, Hotflush Recordings and Planet Mu, before Benga self-released his debut album Newstep in 2006. As dubstep garnered mainstream attention, Benga continued to release singles, including a collaboration with Coki of Digital Mystikz called “Night”, that reached 98 in the UK Singles Chart in 2008. Diary of an Afro Warrior, Benga’s second album, followed in the same year with Resident Advisor describing it as “one of the most anticipated LPs in dubstep yet.”

Skream’s early productions were stark and sinister works he co-produced with another frequenter of Big Apple, Benga. Together, they produced several tracks that Big Apple Records published on two EPs: The Judgment in 2003, and Hydro in 2004.
